We have three compost methods, and I want to add a fourth with worms for humanure. The three we have: bins (trash barrels) in which we mix browns and greens (nitrogen) regularly. All our kitchen scraps that don't go to the chickens go in there, and some garden scraps and plenty of leaves for brown (carbon).
A couple yard debris piles that would overwhelm the bins. One of these piles is in the chicken yard, they turn it over, eat some things, and manure it all. We put this in the gardens early in the spring.
Third is direct composting, "in place", in the gardens. This is mostly grass clippings for mulch, and in the fall chopped leaves (chopped with electric lawnmower). We have plenty of grass clippings, as we are still shrinking our lawn, so some of these go in the pile in the chicken yard.
I plan to use plastic bins for humanure, leaving them for a year to compost after filling them, unless I build a dry composting toilet that uses worms-- like this brilliant design which I have used (and liked) in Argentina:
Perma Preta on Facebook Perma Preta website (in Spanish) It was the prototype I used, which consists mainly of a vault in the ground under the dry toilet, a hose from the urine diverter to a five gallon container (good for adding water to dilute), and a grate placed halfway down in the vault on which worms live, eating and digesting the feces which they then drop as worm castings into the bottom. Has to be emptied very infrequently (years!) and no moving parts except a vent fan, which can be passive/wind-driven if you like.
